High Point A moment in my life that stands out as an especially positive experience is when I graduated high school. The day occurred on June 15, 2015 at the Jiffy Lube live arena stage in my hometown of Manassas, Virginia. The people involved in this positive experience were myself, my mother, father, sister, family friends, my friends, administrators, teachers, and peers. I woke up in the morning around 9:00 am, showered, got dressed packed all of my essentials for my graduation, and drove to
exciting moment in their past. I, however, think of a beautiful, haunting memory of my first adult moment of losing someone close to me. I have been in my husband’s family since I was about 15 years old. Watching a family unit function as one was an odd sensation. Standing, watching brothers and sisters, a mother and father was foreign. I felt like I was watching an almost made up t.v. show. I was from a home made up of a single parent (until later in life), and my aunts, uncle, and my loving
I was always been told as child that I would have that moment. The moment in which you would know instantly that you were created for something better than yourself- the moment a ‘light bulb’ per se would go off in your head. Growing up, I have struggled trying to find this moment. My parents taught me the value of hard work, and no matter what my moment would be I would need to work for it. Between being a full time high school and part time college student, holding leadership positions in many
Everybody will go through moments in their life which will teach them lessons, some that are more important than others, and personally there is one event that still sticks in my mind to this day. It was the time that I started my dad’s car and accidently crashed into my neighbour’s garage door. Today, I know that I should never go against my parent’s words, and I know for sure that the day I crashed my parent’s car is when I taught myself this life lesson. I was five years old, and it was the
In my life there have been very few moments in which I have felt truly sad, these moments are the very things that have defined me. The most life changing of these experiences were my last few weeks in Medford Wisconsin. It all began on the monday of my final week, that day the gravity of the entire situation finally hit me. In the months leading up to this week i had been able to convince myself that i was okay, and that when it all went down i would remain calm. That day when i woke up i knew something
MY Moment It is believed that there is a moment in time in everyone’s life when they come to some sort of conclusion of humanity and how the world truly works, whether it’s at a football game, or in school, or at home, everyone has that moment in their life and every moment is important to each individual person. My personal moment transpired over the course of the summer of 2015, two years ago. That summer I had decided that I was actually going to do something important, something that truly meant
My tragedy started when I was about really young about 10 years old but I didn't know it then. My real father has always been in and out of my life which I now know had a big effect on me then but not so much now because my mindset has changed so much for the better since everything happened. When I was about 5 years old my mom had meet this guy and his name was Daniel and little did I know then that Daniel was going to have the one of the biggest impacts on my life. At the time i had a 3 year old
live life jam packed with tasks to complete and deadlines to meet. They are so focused on what is next, that they forget the most important thing in life is to live in the present. There are so many people stressed out worrying about the future or dwelling on the past that they lack joy. In my opinion the best way to live life is live in the present moment. By living in the present, I will live a peaceful, happy and content life. I will work to make the year of 2018 a momentous year in my life. Living
with blue eyes, so sweet and innocent. Who knew life would throw these obstacles at us? Only a few days old and her future was in jeopardy. The young child had already pushed through life changing surgeries. Personal experiences effect everybody, some happy while others are not as joyful. Sometimes all you can do is hope that there is a chance things can go your way. But the hardest part is staying strong for those you love. Within the span of her life a sweet little angel was in and out of Tampa Regional
In moments of distress literature guides me. Moments in my life when I feel heavy hearted are quickly resolved as I turn to my favorite novels for comfort. Books reassure me that even in the worst situation good fate always wins . When I am lonely, I reacquaint myself with the safe and familiar characters that I know and love . Whenever I feel happy, I smile because I have lived the lives of warriors, enchantresses, and even the common day person. Although the emotional connection between literature
